Dream: Authority

5/4/22 Freewrite

Authority.

I am unyielding authority.

Thy knees shall bow to my every decree.

Thy crypt is bequeathed to royal thane.

Thy fear falls from the core of pain.

Never leave thy name to my dream.

Cry to the train of thought.

Train of thought.

Train of… I saw a train in my dream last night.

I was in the trainyard.

Trains come and go, but I stay the same.

Eternal.

Unlike that body lying on the ground.

Was it ever human?

The dried and scanty remains of skin.

I wouldn’t call it a head so much as I would call it a skull.

And the torso disconnected from the hip bone.

But what lies between the pieces?

It’s not blood.

Sure, there is blood present,

But the the black gooey substance

Is distinct in its purpose.
